Think you could say that about most players on the pitch today, such a flat game as a whole. Think Martial has been ok, he looks better with Rashford and Lingard making runs off him.

I don't think he is anything special today, probably should have passed it to Lingard when he decided to take a shot. Tbf, I don't think we are giving him much freed either, he hardly leaves his position.
He does some great stuff and then loses the ball so meekly in dangerous areas.
Sometimes needs to just kick it long.

He's so good.
Christ, he's an absolute warlock on the ball sometimes. I think he needs to be left side forward again next season and just get him running at fullbacks. He sat Sagna a couple of times today.
He's been playing non-stop for us. About time he gets a proper rest.
He's incredible.
Yeah, I agree.
I think he was great yet again.
One thing I think that's really understated about Martial is his work-rate off the ball when he plays on the left flank, he's such a mature footballer already in his decision making and he just needs to iron out a few kinks technically I feel.
Such a brilliant player. Can't wait to see him in a properly functioning side with more quity around him.
People are sayin he was meh? wow
I thought he made a lot of poor choices today which stopped us from creating good chances. Sometimes he makes very strange runs off the ball when the obvious run into the space might have seen him reach Rashford's cross right in front of the goal. Still he looks a class above most of our team.
We have the best young player in the world, we need to look after him and build around him.
Sour face Souness was waxing lyrical about him.
Kid's going to be an absolute star.

He is so hardworking off the ball, have not really thought that he would be like that for a forward. Compare that to Mata or Depay, he is running his socks off every game. His dribbling is amazing, only his decision making isnt right up there with his other ability currently.
He's played a lot of football and he's doing alright. A few more goals and it'll be a very respectable season.
apart some nice moments, he was quite terrible today but he is the most likeable player here so everybody will forgive how many times he gave the ball away and set up a counter attack, obviously needs rest but we have none else to start
He's young, played in an inferior league. As he said himself, the pace and physicality of the premier league is like no other. This guy is going to learn and get better and better. Brilliant temperament, hard trainer apparently and looks after himself. We need to keep this guy.
His maturity is quite phenomenal. It was quite clear that the 'talismanic' players like Schweinsteiger, Carrick and Schneiderlin were looking to feed him the ball to take responsibility when the game grew scrappier and scrappier.
Totally agreed. He ran at them time and time again worked his socks and although he didn't score was a great outlet down the left.
France should rest him actually, because he would not have any break at all before Euro's if they don't and that will be a problem in the summer for them.
Worked his buns off in the first half with doses of quality, in the second he did the same and looked our best outlet when trying to relieve the pressure. He's so smooth on the ball and just looks like he's destined for the very top.
Thought he was poor today,( I think mainly due to tiredness) but along with Rashford, has been one of the few highlights of this season, so he gets a free pass from me.
Thought he was great.
I think it will hurt more when we let him go to Madrid than it did with Ronaldo..
I thought he was exceptional today. One of his best games for us imo.
The maturity and completeness of his game at 20 is astonishing. He was very good again today.
Reading back through the first few pages of this thread and found this gem.
Excellent again today, hope he carries it on between now and the end of the season
Needs a rest. I imagine hes going with France to the Euros and will get games for them too.
Agreed, his off the ball work is great.

Shudder to think what he looks like playing in a good team. Looks France's best player every time I watch them.
I also thought he played great today
Btw no time for him to rest now. 8 big games left to salvage 4th and cup game at Wes Ham. We need our best attacker for every one of those.
That's what I thought. He did well today.
Thought it was one of his lesser games today. Great young player, though.
Someone get a gif of that run he went on at the end when Rashford was down injured. Brilliant bit of play to relieve the pressure.
I Think souness is the best and fairest pundit of all them.
He's absolute class.
